GAYS' POLITICAL CLOUT FACING TEST

The Washington Times ^ | 2/28/2004 | James G. Lakely

[JesseHousman]

The clout of the homosexual voting bloc has grown significantly in the past decade, and its influence will be put to the test this presidential-election year with the debate over same-sex "marriage."

In the 2000 presidential contest, about 6 percent of voters described themselves as homosexual or lesbian to pollsters for the Voter News Service, an increase from 1.3 percent who said so in 1990.

What about hate crime laws?

I've been thinking about that all this last week; what happens if WE decide to just ignore THAT particular law?

Homosexual Agenda Ping. (If you want on or off list (very) busy list, pingify me!)

This is a comment I made earlier, it fits in here:

My considered opinion (FWIW!) is that the "gay" activists and their minions in the media and so on are going to be shocked by the reaction that is starting the take shape. A tsunami, when out in the ocean, doens't look very big, but when comes up to the shallows near the shore, grows huge. Similarly, I think (and of course hope with all my heart) that the regular people of America will wake up and their wave of indignation and righteous anger will swell and tower over those who want to destroy the moral base of our country.

Homosexuals and those who support their agenda are living in a dream world. (I call it a nightmare.) Their lives are founded neither on religious principles nor on logic, reason, or fact, but on the twisted phantasmagoria created by their minds' illicit and confused desires. They remind me of a fellow I knew years ago who used to like to ingest belladonna as a drug - he would hallucinate so much that he was literally living in an alternate reality. One that didn't exist.

The truth about the "gay" agenda - what they do, what they want for the rest of us, their dysfunctional, miserable lives - needs to get publicized. The more the citizenry know the truth, the more the sleeping giant will awaken.

But his announcement last week in support of a constitutional amendment defining marriage as the union of only one man and one woman has angered a subset of the homosexual community who consider themselves Republican.

Boo ******* Hoo!!

Log Cabin Republicans are not conservative and their goal is to drag the GOP into the sewer with them.

Could you explain your comments? I didn't quite get your points....?

What We Can Do To Defeat the Homosexual Agenda

I don't think all is lost. But we have to get active.

[Dec31,1999]

President Bush received 25 percent of the homosexual vote, or about 1.1 million, the most of any Republican presidential candidate, and he has made a point to reach out to the homosexual community — or at least not alienate them — as part of his message of "compassionate conservatism."

It's a lie. Does anyone, anywhere know of anyone who is gay who voted for GW in 2000? Anyone?

Gays don't vote for Republicans. Period.

[Dec31,1999]

Your decision not to offend affects us all. You should take the step to offend.

At most homos are 1-3% of the ENTIRE population in the U.S.. There size and importance is grossly overstated in this article and in their own perverted little minds.

Agreed. However, taking a stand on FreeRepublic is not enough. There is nothing more effective than word-of-mouth advertising. In this case, the advertising should be for the position of maintaining a strong set of American values about a democratic republic and stopping the judicial tyranny. This stand should be before our neighbors and coworkers. Unfortunately, many companies (I know I used to work for one) demand "tolerance" of the homosexual agenda at the expense of continued employment. Therefore, speaking before coworkers can be career suicide.

True, you gotta do some fishing, a lot of it befire you can find out which co-workers are your friends and those that are not. I'm ruling that out since I need my job. ;) I guess the best venues are local online groups and your Church/Synagogue. I guess find out who is running and who is for and against all this homsosexual stuff.

I wonder what it would be like if I became supervisor on the township and started passing out amateur radio licenses, I bet the Feds would be on me quick.

Your supposition is probably correct. However, it is also illustrative of another type of tyranny.

We have so many laws now with the advent of administrative agencies, that is almost impossible for a citizen to avoid violating some law or the other. Consequently, the law enforcement officials become selective about enforcement actions. The selective enforcement is effectively an anathema to the rule of law. Selective enforcement effectively substitutes the "judgment of man" about which violations to pursue for the judgment of law.

In Hammurabi's time the entire legal code could be engraved on a single stone tablet. The Ten Commandments took up only two tablets with the Bible being only one bound book. Today the Tax Code (a single legal concept) has many more pages than the entire Bible. The rest of the legal code fills libraries. Think about it!

Mr. Steinberg suggests that such groups can have influence over a significant segment of "middle" voters — those who are not homosexual but have homosexual friends or sympathize with their issues — who could now turn against a president they would otherwise support.

"There are people in the middle, who, if they feel there is a harsh attitude toward the homosexual constituency, could become upset," he said. "On this issue, from a political standpoint, whichever side comes across as most moderate will be politically triumphant." [Emphasis mine]

I've got $5 says Mr. Steinberg is a Log Cabin himself, and shoveling disinformation to Republicans and conservatives just as fast as he can.

[lentulusgracchus]

The Republican Unity Coalition (RUC) was formed after Mr. Bush's election by prominent members of the party with the mission of making homosexuality a "nonissue" for Republicans. Today, that seems a tougher goal for the group, who called the president's position "a terrible betrayal of conservative principles."

"We believe this amendment is divisive and distracting from far larger and more important issues and that it will ultimately fail in Congress," the statement said.

Charles Francis, president of the RUC, said his organization stands by its position that it will "neither support nor defend" the president on this issue but declined to comment for this story on the homosexual community's influence over the president.

A Harris Poll released Feb. 18 paints a picture of a homosexual community that is small, largely wealthy and highly political.

Okay, then, let's see who this "Republican Unity Coalition" is........hmmmm, got some familiar names here.....

What is the moral distance between Republican politics and the Court of Honorius?

I'm asking because I can't measure it.
